This T-Bar came used from Marmot Basin and replaced an older Hall T.Tower 1 in the base area.Lower station overview.Lift overview.Side view of the bottom terminal with 12 rocker sheave assemblies.Tower 2.Tower 4.Steep upper half of the line.View own the line.Top station with hydraulic tensioning.Upper station overview.Unloading area at tower 9.View from the summit.Tower between the unload and top bullwheel.Six and eight sheave support assemblies.
While this lift would have had presumably low hours having been the former Eagle T-bar from Marmot Basin, I doubt this lift sat in storage for 20+ years. This lift was installed in 2012, right after Marmot Basin removed their Kiefer and School House T-bars. Considering Marmot Basin’s history of reusing lifts, I would guess that the Eagle T-bar was relocated to replace the original Kiefer Hall T-bar, which would have been 25+ years old at that point. Keifer T-bar having been removed in 2009 and reinstalled in 2012 makes a little more sense than a T-bar sitting in storage for 20+ years.

I feel like 12 sheaves on one side is a little bit much for a t-bar
